Hi Khonalan

It would have helped if you'd given us all the information you had to begin with!  :)

marriage registration: Sep 1897  Sunderland    10a   876
 REECE  Robert      THOMPSON    Isabella Sarah   

Robert was probably away at sea in 1891, haven't yet found him in the census

Sorry for the late reply, have been away for a few weeks

I have looked in the crew lists 1861-1913 on findmypast but there is nothing there for him

You could try the National Archives  click here

and this may be useful http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,274980.0.html

Hope this helps, kind regards
Barbara

hi ecneps, thanks for your reply, i will be looking at your suggestions.  also i would like to update r. reece. i now have the actual birth certificate, and it says as you have already posted, i also now have a further five medals + a ribbon with attendance brooch,es on it. the ribbon + three medals are stamped with the captial letters k.g.h., my research says this means knight of the golden horn. the remaining two medals are identical in that , they are both the same size , made of a very light alloy,with the same inscriptions, which say, commemoration of peace 1919, county borough of sunderland, ald: w.f. vint j.p. mayor  . thanks khonalan.

Hi Khonalan

You might like to post a request for more information on the medals on this board http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/board,300.0.html
I'm sure someone on there would be able to shed a little more light on them

Kind regards
Barbara
